Check the content warnings before reading!! Hard to read at some points, but I loved the ending and the main characters progression was so meaningful because of all the hard parts. Super cool universe she’s made and the aliens in it are super interesting and well done. Overall great world building + great characters

Not for me.  The patois grammar grated on me, the sci-fi setting in the beginning didn’t appeal, nor did the more fantastical setting of the latter section of the book.
